Ecotherapist Conventions

Truth is a feather 
pushed off to the other side.

Truths are a body of feathers
within which our bodies reside.

OK, students of life’s healthiest purposes and meanings,
it’s time to regather, if you would be so kind.

Namaste.

[Silence]

[My EcoTherapist is trying to recall our bicameral minds with ecological bodies.]

[More kinda creepy silence.]

[I wonder if I have time for a cigarette.]

How do you understand “mind” as other than “body”?

[OK, she leads with a dualist assumption
for a session advertised as nondualist,
so the correct answer must be,
I don’t.]

Which, mind or body, do you believe came first,
or do you believe,
as I do,
woke biosystems co-arise nondually?

[I knew it!
Biosystems are self-identifying conscious-rememory 
DNA-encoded systems, or RNA, if you’re a tree or something green,
from before the time when physical root systems
transubstantiated into metaphysical regenerate bilateral,
then bipedal, 
then bicamerally balancing,
eco-political crown capitalizing ego-systems.
I remember our history of biological evolution co-mentoring sessions,
out on the coral reefs of time’s surfing copresence.]

If mind emerges from reiterative 
and redundant 
and resonant neuro-cellular development,
in senses co-arising nondually,
then what Anthro-identity do you think could survive
upon total biosystemic flatline demise 
of your naturally decaying cellular body?

From where would sensory consciousness 
and memory emerge?
From where and when, 
and for how long?

[Hang on there now. I’m stuck back on the where question, 
which I think should probably default as Nowhere,
Ego emerges from nowhere?
No, no, If dead,
then Ego's sensory awareness and memory is nowhere
unembodied at that time, 
and on into the future of EarthTribal evolutionary history.
No such phenomenon.
No such experience within continuous Earth-spinning Time.
I think?
But only as long as I dance 
this Anthro-conscious verbal string
I am LeftBrain dominant]

As your mindbody decomposes,
is this really still your Ego’s story?
In that future time of opportunities for health and relationship
and transactions,
capacities for ongoing communication,
you struggle to face their mortal loss now, projecting forward,
we struggle together to find faith 
these lost opportunities are not your post-critical event
of loss, decay, absence, inevitable physical and mental defeat.

[I don’t even have faith that anyone will think that day
has come even one day too soon.
Nor would I care to invest in such an unwise faith.]

Or,
in the face of this inevitable termination of MindBody's story,
do you, 
as unfolding conscious memory-string of continuous information,
transform into your nutritionally reiterating responses and contributions
yet reverberating within EarthTribe’s ReGeneration Story?

Is AnthroMind expanding EarthBody’s Story?
pregnant pregenetic, nearly timeless Creation Story,
out and yet deeply into this indigenous Non(0)Riginal Intent.

Body memory transforming within ecopolitical truths 
of post-taoist beauty,
remembering—revolving—rewinding—reweaving
ecologic of Ego/Eco balancing
embryonic bicameral
dipolar cognitive/affective neural emergence
(0) CommonsCentered DNA/RNA code—syntax
healthy reverse development instructions
for normative natural/spiritual
mind/body elational resonant resolutions
giving oneself birth into this body’s time

giving ourselves freedom
for Earth's codependent love of light ourselves.

[My self-image emerges rather far toward the depressive side
of love as ecoconscious dark myself.
Oh, wait, maybe that connection between agape/eros 

Basic Win/Win Woke,
understory of all my religious dramas, and irreligious boredoms,
and fears,
and angers,
and….]

Memories,
knowledge,
thoughts,
comprehension,
dissonance and dismay,
feelings of elation and relation,
anticipation,
innocence,
ignorance,
love and hate,
anger and fear,
all Anthro products

as Ego, in turn, is reproduced
by unfolding DNA instructions
within a nurturing RNA-developed warm embryonic pronoic womb
living in this specific time
within Earth’s evolution 
of health-conscious neuro/eco systems.

[Oh, I get it, health as pronoia win/win wokeness.
Puts a positive twist on post-doctoral political economic sciences.
Kind of AnthroCentric, though, 
unless all humane-nature is for ecotherapeutic vocations,
in dying as in living,
in loving as optimally engaged 
through mortality’s timeless lens.]

What we inherited from Elder wombs of Earth’s incarnation
is what Ego becomes
to cherish as responsible authority
rooted within teleologically exegetical historic evidence
unveiling regenerative revolutions

cooperative nested-networks
to let go 
free as a last pay-it-forward gift
to nurture future healthy AnthroMind/EarthBody time
bipartisan echoing
panentheistic light,
Non(0) win/win
Tao.

[Why do I feel like I could use a bath
more than a cigarette?]

Time,
dualdark
deepdense Ego/Eco-hypnotic 
co-elational learning bright,
light octaving night,
ego-protons merging electronic eco-binomial waves
as Yes! reweaves notnot 
yang/yin co-passion yet
WinWin woke-up...

[I’m wondering if there is something in Taoist water
that regenerates this wu wei balance
spinning through my bicamerally revolving mind
as body?]

Could you become as curious about Mother’s anthro development stories
as you have obsessed about your own?

[Wait a minute,
when did I give you the OK to label me as self-obsessed?
Or maybe the balance point here 
invites comparisons between obsessive curiosities,
in which case
perhaps my owned health revival
does indeed lie most mortally inside my failing mind.]

If so,
please note differences
but memorize Earth’s naturally spirited similarities,
especially about what we all want our end to say
one day's capacities for love as peace

about gradually subsiding incapacities 
of anger's Ego losses
and fear of/for future MotherEarth's sacred eros, 
transubstantiating post-climatic experiences.

Namaste.

[Namaste.
Oh wait,
was I supposed to write that out loud?]
